Verbiage?

We've all heard that a pic is worth a thousand words. I think vaguely that that means much more can be said about a photo than can be inferred from just looking at it. Pics can be stunning and revealing but they are one dimensional and often need words to bring out their significance.

That tongue twisting intro was all for this pic:If you feel the need to post this pic elsewhere, please also link your post back here. Thanks.

For those that have been waiting for a true 29" aggressive (ab)use trail tire, it's getting very close. Click on the pic and zoom in to have a gander at that contact patch. That's roughly the pressure I've been riding these babies at, and as you may have guessed the traction is unflippinbelievable. They're also virtually unflattable, but that's another pic and story entirely...

Enel--I'm gonna leave the confirmation in hopes of limiting the spam and other undesirable comments.

GT--see what I'm on about?

Enel--not a Flow. Bigger, better, badder. 36h, double eyelets, and 34mm wide. Hope it gets released this winter. Too good to not be available. There is a 26 x 1.5 tube in that tire (in the pic) and it's being run at about 6 (yes, six) psi. And it's virtually unflattable.
